panzerIV has always been capable of this, it's nothing new. Are some of you saying you've never had your infantry squad instantly destroyed by a panzerIV? It's a good tank.


I don't play that much, but I've never had a p4 wipe a full conscript squad before, in 1 shot ISU style.

Early game is a little less ridiculous than Fisherprice's My First RTS now but it's still the case that the german player has already won at minute zero and it's solely your majestic skill playing ally that allows you to turn the game around and win against all odds.


I didn't post this as a balance thread. It's not in the balance section. Pls don't derail kthx

Now units dont stupidly hit hills or world objects, its one of the best features of this patch. Plus, they make armor the dominant force on the battlefield and in ww2 indeed they were. again, I love it.

I've noticed that the US has retained most if its firepower(Priest artillery squad wiping left and right, rifles just decimating Germans at early and mid game, and etc) but the one thing that has caught my eye is the performance of the Obersoldaten and Volksgrenadier. Both of these units seem to perform worse in this patch which is bad, since I considered them underpowered in the previous patch. I had a match earlier where 3 rifle squads defeated my 2 Obersoldatens that had veterency....might've been an anomaly but i'm not sure.

Yes, I provided evidence(Anecdotal evidence to be precise) where I proved that 2 vetted Obersoldaten squads couldn't defeat 3 rifle squads. The Obersoldatens are supposed to be the best infantry in the game, but they got taken out by American rifles.....it doesn't make any sense which is why i'm trying to figure out if that was an anomaly or if Relic intended these nerfs to the Obersoldaten.

Look at my playercard, I know how to play so that it isn't the problem. It's either RNG(Unlikely) or balance issues pertaining to certain units such as the Obersoldaten.

It feels like pak 40 is acting rather stupid. Not only has its ROF increased, but now it also misses alot. Did you guys noticed that?

Looking at your playercard tells me you have much to learn when it comes to knowing how to play.

Soviets T1 is now 50 fuel to build. Scout car can be oneshotted by raketwerfer.

The Soviet T1 cost increase is a pain. It messes with my scout car timings. It is the kind of thing that deserves an actual patch note and explanation.
